Damn solid pick up bro. Make sure they actually work so no one rear ends you haha The Tom’s, old Buddy Club, and the 17+ tails are ones I’m considering now. They look great on the car and Valenti’s are pretty much everywhere. Definitely going used too

Switched back to e85 tune and did a few hard launches. Forgot what a difference e85 makes!

Replaced a coilpack and put the car on the dyno. It ended up where I wanted it, just needed to taper the boost in slower than it was. Stock catback!

So I installed secondhand Monogram headlamps tonight, though the unit I bought had the connectors already converted to 6-pin with LED + HID functionality (both lights come on when the stalk is turned to the headlights).
Now my car's electronics seem to be fighting each other for power. My car's lights are flickering all over the place and my door speakers dramatically lose volume. My windows are extremely slow. Since it was the middle of the night, I didn't want to start up my car. For the record, I have the following electronics installed so far: - Aftermarket Seicane Android Headunit - Blackvue DR-700S with a Power Magic Pro hooked up via an add-a-fuse - Hella horns directly connected to the battery (removed, replacing the harness with a better PNP solution) In addition to removing the horns, I also disconnected the DRL resistor since it was no longer necessary. Still having issues. Any ideas on where to start? I have a suspicion that there's too many electronics; more than the car can handle, since everything was working fine just moments ago before I installed the lights (except for the fact that I had intermittent speaker issues beforehand). Hopefully I didn't buy a pair of janky headlights here. I don't really believe that to be the case since I've had subtle electronic issues before. EDIT: Out of curiosity, I attempted to start the car. Nothing but clicks. I'm getting less than 9 volts according to my OBDII scanner. I truly wonder if my battery really needs replacement considering it started the car without issues just a moment ago when I needed to reposition it so I could work on it.

Forgot to mention I had the radio on the whole time during the install. Not sure if that was enough to drain the battery, but it probably did. |

Charging the battery should probably be your first step then

That's almost the plan. I'm looking up threads to see if I need to check fuses. I'll attempt to jump-start the car tomorrow night and see where that takes me.
Hopefully it's just the battery. |
